HELLO I AM DAY 6 I WOKE UP FEELING GOOD BUT AFTER MY SHOWER AND FIX MY Breakfast I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW I CANT EVEN DRINK MY BREAKFAST, I HAD TO TAKE A NAUSEA PILL. LAST NIGHT WAS RUFF I MUST SAY. I THINK I STRESSED THE MAIN INSISION AND IT BOTHERED ME ALL NIGHT THE ACHE WENT ALL THE WAY TO MY BACK. YES I WAS SCARED BUT I KNEW I WOULD BE OK. I THINK I AM HAVING A REACTION TO TRADER JOES SPICY BLACK BEAN Soup, KEY WORD SPICY LOL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET MY 60 GRAMS OF PROTIEN IN AND I THINK THAT MADE ME SICK AS WELL I WAS FORCING IT BUT I COULDNT FINISH IT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED LOL.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO HAS HAD THE SURGERY IS DOING WELL. PLEASE SHARE YOUR PROGRESS SO WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

Happy New Year everyone! I don't post that often but love to read what's going on - I get to have my first knee replacement surgery in 21 days. I wouldn't of been able to do this yet if wasn't for the sleeve. Hope to do the other knee in May and than I can get back to work, start being active once again. Keep up the good work everyone!

Mandymay,that is fabulous!! What a great feeling.

Happy New Year everyone... all the best for 2013!

Keep on losing!

Thanks for the encouragement on my new bike. I will have to buy a helmut, our laws say a helmut must be worn. Haven't had a chance to shop yet. Hopefully this week sometime.

You are doing really well down 70lbs since Sept. I am a little slower than that, haven't reached a 30lb loss yet since my surgery day Sept 24. I ate way too many sweets over Christmas.

Well on to the New Year and hopefully better results.

Happy new year! Hope all is well. I haven't been written for a while but I've been keeping up.

Well these past two days were horrible food wise. I ate more carbs that should have. I did gain a pound which makes me sad. But only motivates me know to keep going forward.

hello everyone. still under the weather this sucks. becca girl i understand what you are saying about old ways. yesterday i decided i wanted doritos and dark chocolate, yes i ate it wasnt a big impact due the fact i was on liquids most of the day trying to get that protien in. but it has to stop. i normally weigh in on wednesday but i havent yet i wonder if i lost since last week. hummmmmmmmmmm.

have a great day everyone

Thank you Greenfamily004! I think we all have done so well and it is so inspiring to read eachother's updates to help us through the weeks. Congratulations on your size 12!! That is wonderful!

Congrats to all the weight loss reported here in spite of the holidays!!

I drank way too much on New Years which for me that equals eating too many snacks while buzzed. Then, this morning I weighed in and I have gained 3 pounds. I am pretty dissapointed in myself but I am back to work and focused. Hopefully, this year I will not fail my annual New Years Resolution as I do every other year.

Green- You are awesome! Way to go! I am so happy for you. I bet you feel soo good about yourself!

NGMA- I think once in a while is ok, otherwise we go crazy for holding out on ourselves.You are doing good just stay focused on our goal! Now if only I can take my advice. LOL

RESEARCHING- YAY on size12. I have a whole box of 12's in the garage and I am dying to get into them, I cant yet. I am between a 16-18!

Scared- we are kindred spirits. I LOVE Carbs too much Uggghhh.

ARTSONG- You are getting there!! So close to Onderland!

Rybecca- ME TOOO!!!

Brandy- You look beautiful and i got the chills just thinking about tequila! LOL ((shudder))

MANDY- AWESOME!!! Way to work the sleeve. I hear ya on the exercise.

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND HELLO TO ANYONE I MISSED!!

How many incisions did y'all have?? My doctor said he would do 3, but I've heard of some people having 5. I'm scheduled for surgery in 5 days!! So nervous!!

I have 4. They are fading every day. 3 or 5 would not make a big difference to me though since I just had my gallbladder out last year and have 3 from that!

I have 5. Three of which are very small. Only one still looks bad, but it did rip open. The rest are fading nicely. My doctor said to keep them from the sun for 6-12 months and they will fade greatly.

i have 5

I have 5 as well.

I have 4 all but one very small

I have 7 and none of them bothered me at all. They are very small.
